Urgent prayer needed!!!!

We have copied an excert from our friends' Bob and Angie Gleason's blog about the condition of their daughter, Rachael, who many of us have been praying for.

I'm not sure how to break this to you all. Yesterday was not a good day. During the surgery we were getting periodic reports from Dr. Stroud. The blood clots had neuroblastoma cells in them. There were also tumors that were growing along the spine and over the top of her intestine. There doesn't seem to be much they can do. Chemo obviously doesn't work and the tumors were growing outside of the radiation field. So we are stopping radiation for now. Our minds tell us that any further treatments would only delay the inevitable. But our hearts want us to keep fighting and look for other options. At what point do we stop putting her through pain and just try to enjoy her while we can. But we don't know if we will spend her last days laughing and having fun or watching her wither away. This is a tough place to be. All children belong to God and he just loans them to us for a while. We must have won the children lottery because God gave us the two most beautiful angels in all of heaven. We will fight to save her but we will always consider ourselves blessed for whatever time we got to spend with her. Bob

We are asking for all who read this to pray for this family. Please pray for healing, wisdom, and comfort.
Bob, Angie, Katie and Rachael - We love you, Dan, Kate, Danny and Jack
